I am going to be doing grooming competitions in the future and am in need of a couple more dogs. I've already decided on an English Springer Spaniel for my sporting trim, I have a mini poodle for the poodles, and now I just need to decide on a terrier. Most terriers are stripped, whereas kerries are not, and I'm a scissoring groomer, that's one of my strong points.
I'm already going to have to strip\card my spaniel, and I find them easier to groom anyways. Not that I dislike a challenge. I'm just trying to be practical.
Obviously, I can't consider just the coat type\care. That's where you guys come in.
I need y'all to give me an idea of what they are like: energy level, training needs, compatability with other dogs, (they are terriers, after all.
) etc. Do they bark a lot? Are they stubborn? Prey drive?
Of course, I'm still going to continue my research in my quest for a terrier that will fit me.
I just thought y'all might be able to give me some insight. TIA!
